Zucchini Bread is one of the easiest breads to make. With zucchini season in full swing here I found myself with 3-4 inch thick zucchini and about 7 inches long. It really seems to be doing very well this year. I will be spending all day tomorrow with my mixer and oven. Do you have those problems too? What else do you make with excess zucchini?
